"Porini Mara Camp review"
Appreciated the upgrade. Tent very comfortable. Again, excellent guide and driver. Loads of sightings in the conservancy and big numbers in the Mara. Had hoped to see a river crossing, which didn’t happen on the day we went - but that’s the natural world! We learned to watch animals, particularly cheetahs in a different way - with patience, and allowing drama to unfold with time." See all these reviews: 8n in Kenya
"Great safari at Porini Mara camp"
The camp is perfectly located by a river in one of the Mara conservancies and aims to be low impact and supporting of the local community. The tents are comfortable; be sure to keep the front well zipped to avoid invasion from local monkeys! The "bucket" showers are good with plenty of hot water. The food was good too, and my dietary requirements were well taken care off.
But this camp is all about the game drives and the volume and variety of game was excellent. The camp was busy, mainly with USA visitors, and we shared a vehicle with a lovely young couple. Right from the start we were regularly seeing multiple lions and cheetahs, and saw both make kills! We would see large groups of both, including two families of cheetahs resting together, 7 in total, which the guides said was unprecedented. Plenty of other animals too, incl. elephants and hippos.
Many thanks to our driver / guide Stanley, who gave excellent service incl. taking photos for us if we were too engrossed in the action." See all these reviews: 16n in Kenya
"Amazing....."
Run my mara people, who were and are all just fantastic, knowledgable, funny and kind. They don't quite beat the awe of the fantastic wildlife that I was treated to but they certainly add too it and help make it an unforgettable adventure.
Only one thing I would have liked to have done and that was stop on the high street on way too the mara." See all these reviews: 10n in Kenya
"Porini Mara Camp review"
The staff were really wonderful. We would especially like to thank everyone for the incredible singing and dancing, for our wedding anniversary. I have rarely been as moved by any such ceremony. Amazing!
We will certainly return, and would whole heartedly recommend this camp to anyone." See all these reviews: 7n in Kenya
